Stands for Laugh Out Loud or Laughing Out Loud. This is commonly used throughout text/the internet, used to express amusement between other people. LOL is not to be confused with Lots of Love, which can often lead to awkward/bad moments if the two get mixed up.*

Acronym for "laugh(ing) out loud"
Popularized by America Online subscribers in the early-to-mid nineties, spotting someone using the expression was a fairly reliable way to infer that this person was an AOLer. The fact that the L and O keys are adjacent may have helped the acronym find common usage among those who carefully observed their keyboard while typing.
With the decline of AOL, usage of "lol" and its variants spread to any fucktard who somehow found his or her way onto the Internet.

A handy signpost that morons can charitably use online to inform others that they are, in fact, a moron.

a highly overused expression meaning "laugh out loud". part of the all to common internet lingo (lol, rofl, g2g, btw, brb, etc...) that floats around now a days, each letter represents a word, making typing on chat lines and/or online games faster and easier to type... but not always easier to read...
"lol" has now become an overused anoyance. most of the time the typer is not actually laughing and just adds it in as a filler in conversations. used alot when a said person does not know what to type, even if its HIGHLY out of place...
